Course Description

Zero-Knowledge protocols are important building blocks for more complex cryptographic protocols. This class covers foundational aspects of zero-knowledge proofs inluding:

• Lower bounds and round complexity
• Necessary assumptions
• Communication complexity
• Zero-Knowledge in a quantum world
• Theoretical and practical constructions
• Security Proofs
